I know this ...... it is false
Percentage by which the gas tank of the car is full = 40%
Amount of gas in the gas tank = 8 gallons
Let us assume the capacity of the gas tank = x gallons
Then
40% * x = 8
(40/100) * x = 8
4x/10 = 8
4x = 8 * 10
4x = 80
x = 80/4
= 20 gallons
So the total capacity of the gas tank of the car is 20 gallons. I hope the procedure is clear to you.
The 24 pack. The 6 pack would be 41 cents per unit, the 12 would be 33, but the 24 would be 22.
Answer:
If you were to move five to the other side, the equation would have a completely different outcome. Instead of x + 5 = 27 it would be x = 27 + 5. Then the answer would be x=32 rather than x=22. You need to do the inverse of the original equation to get the correct solution. (AKA: balancing the equation)
I hope this helps :))
1) Graph the corresponding equation \( x = 2 \); this will split the plane into two regions. One of the region represents the solution set.
2) Select a point situated in any of the two regions obtained and test the inequality. If the point selected is a solution, then all the region is the solution set. If the selected point is not a solution, then the other (second) region represents the solution set.
3) Test: In this example, let us for example select the point with coordinates (3 , 2) which is in the region to the right of the line x = 2. If you substitute x in the inequality \( x ≥ 2 \) by 3 it becomes \( 3 ≥ 2 \) which is a true statement and therefore (3 , 2) is a solution. Hence, we can conclude that the region to the right of the vertical line x = 2 is a solution set including the line itself which is shown as a solid line because of the inequality symbol \( ≥ \) contains the \( = \) symbol. The solution set is represented by the blue hash region in the graph below including the line x = 2.
